For the record, 2 people chose João Havelange correctly for the 7th death of the year. ​For the record, 3 people chose João Havelange incorrectly as the 6th death of the year. ​This means someone jumped ship, and we need to find out who it was and mock them mercilessly. ​SC

John Bel Edwards was on BBC TV News over the weekend when they covered this story. Still amazes me that someone named John Edwards could get elected after the stigma of the previously scorned Presidential candidate, which I guess accounts for the BEL in JBE just to clarify 'I'm not the a-hole guy'. Still, surprising he prevailed. He seems a decent chap fwiw. SC
